If my brother was killed that way i would under and over react for years. Life can really throw curves. My Dad died 42 years ago when i was a kid. I am still angry about that. Not rational but still angry. Not looking for therapy here just showing empathy for our FRiend.

I feel empathy for him too, as I said. But I also feel empathy for the victims of wilding cops. And I especially feel empathy for the gradually increasing worry all over the country that is leading to a Gestapo-like chronic fear of the police, while they receive federal military vehicles, tanks, battle armor, drones, explosives, and unnanounced combat training in civilian environments.

You don't have to be a genius to see where this is going. The privatization of prisions has now led to lawsuits against states for not providing enough prisoners per the specified contracts. There doesn't seem to be any stoppage in sight for a military buildup that not only isn't hiding itself, but that was announced to be intended to be bigger than our entire military by our dear president. The country is being turned into a prison, openly, and that makes us prisoners - openly.

Which would be bad enough. But when I see cheerleaders for it, their personal issues are IRRELEVANT. You think nazi's didn't have families they cared about, deaths and illnesses and trying times? Do think ANY of that matters concerning what they DID?

I do not.
